Ages:

ESERO-UK have produced a collection of mathematics resources aimed at teachers of key stage 2, 3 and 4 students (age 7 to 16), which is closely linked to elements of the mathematics national curriculums of England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales which can be taught in new and stimulating ways. Children can explore familiar and unfamiliar mathematical ideas relating to Tim’s Principia mission, including estimation, measures, combinations, permutations and probability.

The resource comes in three packs that each focus on different areas of the Principia mission:

Pack 1: How much do you eat? An exploration of how Tim Peake will get six months’ worth of food to the International Space Station.

At the moment, we haven't planned any events for this activity. Please check back later.
